door actuator linkages.
Auto Headlamps
The headlamps and park/tail lamps will be activated by the BCM when the headlamp switch is in the auto mode. To activate the auto headlamps the
BCM requires that:
1. The headlamp switch is in the "A" position
2. The engine is running
3. The light level sensed through the sun load sensor falls below the calibrated level
Headlamp Time Delay
The headlamp time delay operates when the ignition switch is turned off while the headlamps are still on, and the head lamps are then turned off within
45 seconds after the ignition is off. The BCM will provide a 90-second time delay before turning off the headlamps.
